People are sick of movies relying on the names of the actors alone. Actors are nothing without writing ... and it's the writers that are killing movies and creativity in general.
Both the Wikipedia page for The Best Christmas Pageant Ever and The Numbers social media post listing the projected box office for this weekend both list the budget for the film to be $10 million not $20 million
Some people are gona try to spin this as "Oh well its better then releasing it on streaming only". Like cmon guys read the room, its gona be a massive financial loss. Some others are thinking this is making 300-350 milion worldwide. Which with Gladiator 2 opening internationally this weekend with 87 milion and next weekend you got both domestic release of Wicked and Gladiator 2 and then the week after with Moana 2. Red One is just going to get buried.
The $250M for Red One was allocated budget for making streaming content on Prime. It was released in theaters just to make a little extra pocket change for Amazon. This movie will be on Prime for Christmas. So, no use in spending money to see it in the theater.
I enjoy the Rock from time to time but what bothers me the most about him is that he is just so safe with the movies he chooses to star in. His best movies are fun at best but nothing great, with some exceptions. But he rarely ever challenges himself as an actor and his taste in scripts are Ho-hum. Whenever he stars in a movie, you know it could be fun at best, but it’s not going to be anything really special.
Thoughts?
I wanted to see Heretic, was it good?
Well Disney lost a few billions too.Everything is about how many billions you can afford to lose and Amazon has alot of them.
I walked out of my first movie ever yesterday. Red One… that first “action scene” with the Rock… my girlfriend turned to me and said lets leave 😂

Dwayne Johnson is not a box office draw...
A) I have celebrity fatigue.
B) I will never pay to see political shills like Chris Evans.

Ugh I hate when they change it after two weeks being the same. Thanks for the heads up

What! The Rock is very specific about his movies it MUST have a jungle and/or a skyscraper
We are reslly just waiting for Sonic 3.
Any chance Moana 2 is good I wonder. Hear it was ruahed, and that rarely bodes well for a film.
Star power is dead
Why are the screens doing blackface? Sorry, I'm drunk
